🌐 Multistreaming Support (Optional)
Want to stream to Wenlive + YouTube + Twitch simultaneously? You can!
Two Options:
1. Use Restream.io or similar platforms
Go to https://restream.io
Select MUX and Add your MUX stream key + all other platform credentials
You can route your OBS output to multiple destinations via Restream
2. Stream directly to multiple endpoints (advanced)
Use OBS plugins like Multiple RTMP Outputs Plugin
Requires manual configuration of multiple stream keys and endpoints
Slightly heavier on CPU
⚠️ Note: We recommend Restream.io for ease of use unless you're a power user.
